I asked Jute for USA riding experience supporing his continuous efforts on telling us what to do wear say and ride.
My understanding is Jute is a Euro/Irishman.
Jute's response is typically ugly, boorish and way off the subject Jute introduced.
As Jute writes an essay telling us we should eat shit.... more »

We should ban bottled water and legalize marijuana

Only a handful of states in the Union have a deposit law, so the rest
has a problem with littering. My community and many other communities
are full of shit and nobody has a solution. Oh, they clean once a
week, but the bottles don't disappear. There's no recycling program
where I live --not that it makes much of a difference. The... more »

The 10 commandments
|
| |
What commandments/rules would you offer to a novice who's just bought a
bike, to help them survive biking, particularly in the (sub)urban roads
landscape?
E.g.
1/ Thou shalt obey the road rules.
2/ Thou shalt ride as far left/right as practicable does not mean on the
edge, but more like 0.5 to 1m from it, probably in the left [right for... more »

campagnolo freehub bearing change
|
| |
wondering if anyone has done a bearing change in a Campagnolo Freehub, the outer bearing is easy to get at but the inner one is behind a snapping/circlip. Do you need this retainer? I have got it out, but it isn't reusable...
Thanks Martin

Campagnolo Centaur Left Shifting lever problem
|
| |
Hi,
Centaur 2012 so almost new...
It works but it is so loose that even on smallest bump lever hits brake lever which cause annoying noise of course. [There is no such a problem with right lever BTW.]
Any suggestion how to fix?

Effect of lane position in a blind left turn
|
| |
Just trying to introduce a bit of tech into the discussion.
Consider a worst-case scenario roadway; a dense forest
immediately adjacent to the edge of the road so sightlines
are blocked in curves. Let
w = width of each lane
R = radius of turn (at centerline of road)
d = distance of driver from centerline of road... more »

Best Repair Book
|
| |
So, the kid is going off to college, and he's taking two bikes (road/
29er), and I'm ashamed to say that he is not mechanically gifted and
that I never taught him much about bike repair. I just quietly
performed my duties as fleet mechanic. My only excuse is that he did
not get really manic about riding until just recently.... more »
